Er, calm down. 

 

This tvf story about Pattaya. Not thai news.

The thai news, thai people read/look, in all the province say is Thai people. You imagine to much.

 

I think to much TVF, make you crazy, believe thai care/talk about you. Everyone worry about health now, nobody talk about farang.

 

Ask your wife how many people talk about farang today. 

 

It only repoert 9 foreigner in Pattaya have it. Nobody die, it not important news.

Thai people not care about this.

 

1500+ Thai confirm, 9 thai die, business close, economy disaster, lose the job, can not pay electric, rent, loan etc.

You think thai care about 9 sick foreigner at Pattaya now? Pfffft

 

A  lot of what you say is true and reasonable Ying. Good to have a non biased Thai view here. Keep up the good work

[giddyup]

My partner says there is a lot of anti-falang feeling and comments on social media. Comments that falangs are dirty and the virus has spread in countries like Italy because they don't wash and wear shoes in the house. This pandemic is bringing out the inherent racism.

100 % are humans . Not helpful to report like this.

I actually think it is informative, interesting to see if the demographics change with further testing and diagnosis.

Is testing for Thai free of charge?

 

[sapson]

Can most thais afford testing and are they inclined to spend their depleted funds on a covid test or basic food for family.

 

Probably any sick farang is more able to test and if dragged to hospital very unwell will be automatically tested and if not suffering from covid will likely need heart treatment on getting the bill.

 

Simply a higher number of westerners tested so higher percentage positive and government happy to release all figures on farang covid cases but less forthcoming  with Thai figures.

According to my sources, the virus will go around the world killing about 2% of humans. Then it will mutate and go round again. And again, and perhaps again. We are obviously not being informed about this. The hidden powers only want one billion people to do the work, while they pull/jerk the strings, like the puppet-master and his marionette. This virus is just a pilot for the future real deal.

 

Don't believe those that say that the population will be reduced to half-a-billion; just not enough people.

 

There is a big drive - as we type - to find suitable people to inhabit/populate the new planned International space station. A mix of races and ages (16 to 30). They want 87 women and 13 men. This is the optimal ratio for breeding from scratch.

Will they include lizard people? 

[RichardColeman]

Maybe they could they could examine when they entered the country and what coach party of coughing Wuhan tourists they were stuck behind in the immigration cue

Hmmm

 

This is a thaivisa news report. No Thai link. Just information.

 

Headline and story write by a foreigner at TVF, not a thai person

Oh that guy on the BTS blaming foreigners was from Thaivisa....

[Skallywag]

1500 "cases" out of 69,000,000 people OK. Currently  23 severe, 9 deaths.  only 0.00002% infected,

We are doing what is necessary to squash this virus people, give yourself a pat on the back

Stay safe, stay away, and wash your hands

You are the one that needs to calm down, and stop with the nonsense about farangs.

Ok. Breathe in. Breathe out.

 

A foreigner at TVF write the headline and story. 

 

Breathe in. Breathe out.

 

This not a thai news story. Only about 9 sick people.

Now is 784,392 sick, and 37,780 dead. 

You know it not significantly right?

 

Breathe in. Hold. Breathe out. 

 

Yinn probably only Thai in the world read it. 

 

Calm down. You be ok.

and they likely got it from Thais who are no longer in Pattaya as their bar closed a week ago and they have no more work servicing farangs 

 

Three Russian, three Thai and one Japan. 7 

 

And 5 farang. 

two U.K, one Sweden, one German, one french

Probably from their bar. Probably other disease.

..and the stupidity reporting award goes to!

 

Misleading headline. This story is based on just 15 cases. 

 

How many confirmed cases are there in Pattaya?

 

9 out of 12 cases is indeed 75% and if these 9 were not Thai nationals

then they are foreigners. I don't see anything misleading there.

The very first infection recorded outside of China was in Thailand in mid January - a Chinese national from Wuhan 

 

How a preemptive nuclear attack on China right now as that is pretty much what they have done on the rest of the world

 

when this is all over I think China is going to end up very isolated and so it should be 

Even in February any Chinese tourists were able to leave China and infect Thai people and others.

 

Even in March, some could cross the borders.

The <deleted>ting on all and everywhere mentality has caught up with them.

No they are becoming the Mother Theresa of the East. Sending test kits, masks, respirators to the world.

Making money and profitting from it while delivering urgently needed assistance

IMO, they all got infected by Thai prostitutes that do not exist.

 

   The prostitutes must have infected thousands of people. 

 

Probably other disease? 

 

You're now openly blaming foreigners. Again.

 

 

 

   

[Leaver]

And what is being done to trace their contact/s here, other than a warning sign in a condo block entrance????????

[RJRS1301]

Do they have contact tracers within Health Ministry?

 

[Ventenio]

it's the blame game. China will lose to the West, 100%.  With people inside on their computers, the West has time to really get upset at this cover-up.  The East?  Money might talk.  China might buy up all the properties in Thailand and that might work.  

 

My experience as a farang.  I'm bad until they know I've lived here for many years.  Then I'm fine.  So speak Thai quickly to assuage their fears.

 

Will be interesting to see how this one plays out...

 

I'm guessing America will eventually pull out all their manufacturing there.  It probably comes down to how long this lasts, and how many die.  If your friend dies of COVID.....well, you might not be too happy with China.  

[Basil B]

Give it a week...

 

As I understand it there are no tourists left in Pattaya, so any foreigners would be long term residents but as many of them need to do the visa run is anyone surprised how easily COVID19 is spread??? 

[mike787]

No surprise here....foreigners especially from china and europe. 

[Cake Monster]

I am sure that if the poll was taken a week ago the figures would be significantly different.

All the Thais with the Virus have run away back to the Boonies

[manhood]

I won't believe of any of these "statistics". How many people have been tested????

Do you think thais go to see a doctor and would have to pay for a test?? Ñot at all. So all these numbers are based on nothing but good to show: foreigners make the problems and are the problems.

However:

 

Of 1,524 cases, Dr Anupong said, 1,297 were Thai and 227 were foreigners. The largest cluster of patients – 715 -- was in Bangkok. The average age of all patients was 40.

 

 

Surely the average age of the total inhabitants of most countries would not be far removed from 40, making this percentage rather meaningless. Statistics has a wonderful way of telling us that anyone has a 50% chance of coming down with the virus. Either you do or you don,t ????

Have to forgive them.

 

Look how David Icke was ridiculed in his early years. Now he is the go to authority for truth.

 

 

[nemo38]

There are over a million deaths each year from traffic accidents. There are over thirty million from heart problems.

 

At first we didn't know how much of a problem the Kung-Flu would be. We are seeing very few deaths from Covid-19. 

 

When deaths are quoted they should be alongside the expected number of deaths for Flu (Covid family have always been responsible for 10-15% of flu deaths) and how many of the dead had serious conditions which were going to kill them.

 

Thailand should open up again. Every country should look at isolating old people during flu season. It causes more harm than good to shut down the economy.

There are even (heaven forbid)  Thai male prostitutes  who ( I'm told) are quite popular with the Thai female  prostitutes !!!!   (allegedly as countless reports where that no prostitution was found in Pattaya)
